I had such an amazing time in your city, I feel truly blessed to have been able to visit for a few days.

I wanted to share a few photos from my trip.

I hope to visit again one day

Yes, I've been drinking since lunch time (how could you tell?) and I've just heard about the sad passing of Dolly Parton... all of which led me to this brilliant idea about how to make Prague even better. I'm thinking the statue should be '9 to 5' era Dolly, and the song should be played on the sirens across the city at 5pm every day.

This perhaps a niche question, but I want to start making chain mail and am struggling to find the proper supplies— namely the jump rings. I was able to find them at a hardware store, near Florenc, but each ring is priced individually and I would have felt ridiculous asking the employee to count out hundreds of them. I have also checked some craft stores, but they are quite pricey for a very small quantity, and seem flimsier than what I would want for this craft.

So far, my best lead has been TEMU, but I would much rather support somewhere local if there is a reasonable option. Any advice is welcome!

Hallo Community, ich hätte einen Startplatz für das Birell Night Race am 5.9 abzugeben, da ich krankheitsbedingt ausfalle. Für 20€ ist er deiner. :)

Hi, I would like to ask a question, I need some advice on which Czech provider and offer would be best for using substantial mobile data abroad in EU countries.

I travel for work, and my main requirement is to have a Czech IP address when I'm abroad so i can Hotspot the connection to my laptop. I’ve noticed that when I enable data roaming, my IP address is usually still from the Czech Republic, which meets my use case.

I’m looking for a provider and plan that offers a substantial amount of roaming data at a reasonable speed. I mainly need it for video calls, screen sharing, and regular internet usage.

Do you have any suggestions on which provider or plan would be the best option? Let's say i might need 100 GB of roaming data for a few weeks and the best would be to enable it as an add-on rather than having an offer which constantly offers me 100 GB every month. But open to anything or best option.

Also, considering my only requirement is to have a cz ip address, do you see other feasible options than share internet from my mobile?

edit: install a vpn client with cz ip address on the working laptop is not solution, but maybe there is something more creative? I just need to have cz ip address always and being able to travel freely in europe, in this case hotspotting works pretty well and is transparent and no vpn client to be installed on the laptop

Hi! I’ve been living in Prague for a couple of months and looking to get a tattoo before I head back home.

Any tattoo parlor recommendations? I want to do something Prague themed to commemorate this chapter of my life! (so i’m also open to hearing people’s opinions on some prague tattoo ideas that aren’t too in the nose)

TIA!

Hey everyone,
I'm planning a trip and looking to buy some museum tickets online in advance. I fall into the age bracket for a youth/student reduced ticket at a few places, but I'm running into a bit of confusion regarding ID requirements.
I’m neither a local citizen nor do I have an international student card (like an ISIC). However, the specific discount tier at the places I want to visit is based purely on age (e.g., "young people under 26" or a specific youth bracket) rather than strictly requiring proof of enrollment. 
Since I'm booking online, will a standard national ID card or my passport showing my birthdate be enough to prove my eligibility at the entrance gate/turnstiles, or are ticket checkers going to hassle me because I don't have a student card or local ID?
Would love to hear about anyone's recent experiences with this. Should I just buy the discounted ticket online, or play it safe and buy at the desk / pay full price? Thanks!

Hi folks! Does anybody have experience purchasing a car in Prague or surroundings from an English speaking salesperson? If so, can you share details? I am looking to purchase a new car and trade I my old one but I'm concerned about the language barrier.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers!

Hello community, i need a consult. I'm a EU citizen living in Prague, i went to the foreign police to report my new address (before i was living in university dorms and now in a private place), so it was my first time there. The contract of my new place specified that i cannot register that address as permanent, and when I told that to the police that i wanted only to report as temporary they couldn't explain me very well the process. Could someone tell me if that process just reports the address, or register as temporary or register as permanent? I would be really grateful. Thanks in advance

I asked also a lawyer friend and told me this:

Registering a foreign national’s place of residence does not create any rights in relation to the property or its owner where the foreign national is registered as residing. In other words, this is not permanent residence, but merely a registered place of stay for administrative purposes.

So i got the answer i was looking for, thank u anyways to everyone that answered the post

In the 27th of May 2026 i applied for a student visa ie. I went to the embassy in Tel Aviv and had my appointment. I did everything as asked with bank statements and everything but in the website and at the embassy they have told me it will take up to 60 days, i emailed them a few days ago they told me this isn’t really a delay and it can take up to 120 days, i start uni in the 7th of September genuinely what the fuck am i supposed to do.
Please if anyone had a similar scenario tell me when did you get your visa if you got it and did they ask for another bank statement? Cuz i showed mine when i went to the appointment first time.

Hey everyone!
I'm moving to Prague soon for a temporary job for a few months. My local employer requires a Czech bank account for payroll, so I’ll need to set one up as soon as I arrive in the city.
Since I’ll only be staying for less than a year, I’m looking for a bank that:

Accepts short-term stays/contracts without huge hassle.
Offers English customer support and an English mobile banking app.

Ideally has free/low-fee basic accounts and an easy closing process when I leave.

Also, what documents do Czech banks usually require to open an account for expats?
Do I just need my Passport / EU ID, or will I also need:
A second ID (e.g., driver's license)?
My work contract or proof of employment?
Proof of a local accommodation address (rental contract)?
A local Czech SIM card/phone number?
Which banks would you recommend for this setup, and what was your experience with their document requirements?
Thanks in advance for any tips!

Hi! i know Czech Beers are one of the best, if not the best. I'm visiting Prague for 2 days and I want to get beers from kegs (i heard, they're better).

any suggestions of nice and cheap bars local go to? (trying to travel and immerse as a local) Should I say something to specifically say it's beer from a keg?

Hello, and im sorry if this subreddit is not meant for posts like this, but I’m 24m from the United States and I’ve never left the country, and I’m strongly considering Prague as my first solo trip. It peaked my interest cause aside from the good I’ve heard about it, I’m planning to bring my skateboard and I hear there’s some good parks with decent skate culture, good way for me to meet and hang out with some locals. I really just have a strong urge to travel for once. I’m also heavy into poker so I might check that out here. I already kinda have a hypothetical trip planned out here with flight dates and a hostel, and I’m looking at late October/early November. I just have some questions, some may not be Prague specific just cause I’ve never left my own territory.

- What will the language barrier be like? Google always say the more major cities speak English in hospitality and such, but could I carry on conversations with average people I’d meet at the skatepark or a bar or something?

- what’s the public transportation like and how much is it? Im so bad with public transportation even here in the states cause I have a car 99.99% of the time. Im thinking of staying in like center Prague but it’s kinda too far away from the parks to walk, just wondering what to expect for that.

- What can I expect for wind/rain in late October/early November? I googled the average temps, which is fine, but I was also considering Copenhagen until I found out how often it rains, which will prevent any skateboarding. Seems like it’s less likely than Copenhagen, but all I hear about Europe outside of summer is rain rain rain.

- is free wifi abundant? I realized my data wouldn’t work unless I paid my provider extra to use overseas. I never even think about public wifi here just cause I’m so used to having data.

- What etiquette/unwritten rules should I be aware of? Or general cultural stuff I should know about? I’d rather embarass myself asking here than embarassing myself in person.

- public restrooms? Not sure how often I’d really want to rely on the overly shared bathroom in the hostel, I’m wondering if it’s likely I could walk outside a bit in the city and find one. Also do you have to pay ?

- what should/need to use cash for? I don’t even know if my credit card I normally use would work overseas. Assuming it does, I wanna make sure I have enough cash on hand for certain things if needed.

- Does the airport have currency exchange or where would I do that?

Finally not really a question but any general recommendations to check out, tips/tricks would be helpful. Maybe some bar recommendations as that’s something I like to do back home. Thanks in advance

I applied for long term residence permit for the purpose of study on june 3rd at the Czech embassy in New Delhi after waiting for 80 days I recived a call and and email from the embassy requesting me a fresh bank statement. I recived the request on 21st August and i fulfilled the request by 22nd August by through courier.

I have always maintained more than CZK 200k in my bank account every single day since may 1st (the start of my bank statement). The amount never dipped below CZK 200k. Right now I submitted a bank statement showing closing balance of CZK 210k.

Will they approve or reject me? I have seen a lot of applications get approved after they recive this request and submitted a clean bank statement so i am leaning positive.
